Testimonials

We came to DETEKT with an idea, and they turned it into a reality.

Three years ago we started experimenting with a system for mounting small waterproof cameras on adventure equipment, and our first attempts succeeded in a limited way – so we wanted to take it further, and eventually to make this idea into a business.

By incredible good luck we made contact with DETEKT and so began the process of creating a properly designed, aesthetically pleasing and ruggedly efficient product that would do all the things we wanted but in a small and light package. DETEKT made it happen.

The Flymount came to life, and when the prototype arrived in the UK we were absolutely delighted with it. We...

Three years ago we started experimenting with a system for mounting small waterproof cameras on adventure equipment, and our first attempts succeeded in a limited way – so we wanted to take it further, and eventually to make this idea into a business.

By incredible good luck we made contact with DETEKT and so began the process of creating a properly designed, aesthetically pleasing and ruggedly efficient product that would do all the things we wanted but in a small and light package. DETEKT made it happen.

The Flymount came to life, and when the prototype arrived in the UK we were absolutely delighted with it. We tested it in the field, we market tested it and we tried it on a really wide variety of people from different walks of life – just to see what their reaction was to the look and feel of it. It was hugely well received.

So we decided to go ahead and manufacture, at first in the UK. Long meetings and even longer waits eventually produced a price that made it impossible for us to make a profit, even at our most optimistic sales projections.

At that point, DETEKT reminded us that they could oversee the manufacturing in China. We were sceptical about quality control but they came back to us with a quote that was exactly at our aim price and with firm assurances on quality and engineering standards, so we began to think it may be possible to use Chinese engineering and costs but with an interface which was culturally similar to ours.

This was important because it is very easy to feel that you have made yourself absolutely clear on a technical point, only to find that someone at the other end of the world has a different and sometimes opposite understanding.

DETEKT have taken us right through the manufacturing process, mould making and engineering, cleared up small errors and ensured that quality is excellent in the final product. We are delighted with their work and dedication to standards – and their good communication throughout.

As the Flymount begins to take off we have a series of new products to bring to market, and we know that DETEKT are the people we will work with.

We came across DETEKT via the luck of the draw as we search for a new product design partner as we opened our first international office. After initial meetings with Daniel and his team, we decided to award them the initial project and they not disappointed on any of the subsequent business we have done with them from new designs of blood pressure monitors to an animated Flash sequence for use on one of our websites.

Before meeting DETEKT, Arcadia had its reservations about teaming with a a design company outside of the United States due to worries about the potential for miscommunication and the perceived risks in intellectual property.

However, after working with DETEKT for quite some time, I can say they we have not had any issues at all with any of the team members there. The excellent results that have come from each of the products show that all of our thoughts and direction have been thoroughly understood and tended to. All of our clients with whom we have shared DETEKT’s work have been extremely impressed. Our growing relationship has been quite a refreshing experience.

I met Daniel Roney before DETEKT days and got to know him and his intentions to start a product design and manufacturing business. He had a broad understanding of the industry and was extremely helpful with answering all the questions that helped me iron out most of the unknowns.

When I started looking around for an organization that would be able assist me with commercializing my ideas, Daniel was the first choice. He has started DETEKT at the time and the rest was history.

He was tremendous help in deciding which products would be commercially successful and how I could develop a product with my small budget. I was a beginner to product commercialization, manufacturing and intellectual property issues and could have lost all my money without developing a product if not for Daniels’ personal advice.

I even received assistance with patent search from DETEKT, to make sure that the end product was unique and second to nothing that existed in the market. I received DETEKT’s advice on how to receive government grants and help with developing my own business plan.

During the product development process I was able to pick the best design out of many and improve on it before we finalized the design for the prototype. DETEKT also recommended the law firm that still takes care of my intellectual property related issues. Since the early days the Verso measuring lid had many improvements and variations.

DETEKT offered to develop the concepts in stages so we did not have to spend on full development lifecycle of concepts that did not win clients. Daniel has grown DETEKT in to an international business over the years and I still get the same dedicated service and commitment from Daniel and his dedicated team at DETEKT.
